Great location-- step out right into the hub of restaurants, shopping and nightlife. Literally a 2 minute walk to Hongik station exit 3. Very clean tidy and simple to check in and out of. Nice central homebase if you're going to walk-survey surrounding areas.

おしゃれです。スタッフも親切でした。 出口にもよりますが弘大入口駅徒歩10分以内。 バロアトからは空港鉄道やリムジンバスの停留所が近いので、 韓国旅行に慣れていない方でも比較的利用しやすいと思いました。 バロアトの場所はショッピングをメインとするエリアの反対側にありますが、 芝生の遊歩道を挟んでおしゃれなカフェが点在しており、 春から秋は気持ち良さそうだなと思いました。

1泊利用しました。以前ホンデにある別のゲストハウスを利用した際あまりいい思い出がなく今回も不安でしたが、とても素敵なところでした。駅から近い、建物室内とてもオシャレ、防犯がしっかりしてる、アメニティが充実、清潔感があり、ドアノブに朝食をかけて下さる。共用部分で食事無料のところは多いですが、このサービスは個人的にかなり嬉しいです。何よりスタッフの方が素敵で日本人の私に丁寧に翻訳機を使って説明して下さり、とても気持ち良く利用できました。口コミが良い理由に納得です。また利用したいです。

Great location and a very efficient checkout system. It’s perfect for those who plan to be out all day and just need a place to crash at the end of day. Be mindful that this hotel does not provide a full size bath towel. They give you two hand towels instead. In addition, the bathroom is a wet shower. If you don’t like that, choose another place to stay.

Great location, minimal service

:) Location is amazing right at Hongik University station, lots of restaurants and shopping in the area, the room was nice modern minimalistic :I Towels are tiny but apparently that is the norm, was in a 3 person room - would recommend it not for more than 2 people, needed a while till I figured out how to unlock the door :( breakfast consists of a sugary bakery item and a sugary canned drink
